Ironic then that he had the very word ‘AMBITION’ tattooed on his wrist. And doubly ironic that were it not for that fact, DM would likely have gotten away with TB’s murder and hence the other 2 as well.

Aside from the appeals (not sure about grounds for appeal), there are also the civil suits to sort through. And the question of who now gets WM's inheritance. The sordid DM story still has a chapter or 2 to go.

Very interesting parallels. Loeb was the instigator/mastermind (DM) and Leopold the enabler (MS) and only both together could lead to murder. To play the analogy a step further, we’d need DM to meet a similar demise as Loeb in the shower and MS to start writing books and develop a fluency in 17...

He was an above normal psychopath, a high functioning, clever and diabolical con artist with a whole posse working for him back in his ‘mission’ heyday. They worshipped DM and were convinced that he was indestructible.

Or maybe, in a weird way, WM felt comfort having his son nearby, and like a doting parent, he was completely unable to see his son’s faults. “DM, you young whipper snapper, you record-breaking pilot of helicopters and fixed wing aircraft, now get on there, you scamp...” DM could do no wrong in...

The Crown had a thin case to start with. Calling MB was surely a risk but she easily could have stumbled or slipped up in her testimony. I think that they would have had more to gain than to lose by calling her. JMO

It would be interesting to speculate how this trial may have played out differently if it had been a jury trial. Would the Crown's argument have resonated more with a jury than with this judge? Might RP have felt more compelled to call defence witnesses to counter? A guilty verdict may have been...

Interesting comments but remember that DM is equal parts sadistic predator and pathetic coward. It was his cowardice that prevailed the previous day when he and MS cut and ran when faced with the imposing IT. The other priority for them the incinerator and their sick obsession with it. If TB...

Or maybe this case was a loser from the start. TPS and coroner ruling it a suicide puts the Crown's case against reasonable doubt in jeopardy. Improper handling of evidence, lack of adherence to protocol in pictures, camera battery dying, possible moving of the body or bedsheets, etc. may have...

If speaking in hyperbole with every statement It is interesting that the judge feels that she requires 3 months to make a decision when most on this thread believe that she has already decided in DM's favour.

1) Has suicide been ruled out beyond a reasonable doubt? If the Sutherland testimony is not excluded, then the answer is yes. Even if the Sutherland testimony is excluded, you still have the complete absence of GSR on WM's left hand which is the only hand free to have fired the shot. Add to...

Does anyone know why it will take 3 days for the judge to determine the admissibility of the Sutherland testimony? Can the judge consult with other experts? Other judges? What are the criteria? Or does she simply research the precedents for such a challenge? IMHO, it does not appear that...

DM bought the illegal firearm from a convicted gun dealer. DM’s DNA on the gun (? and not WM’s). DM’s police statement is at odds with his cell phone pings which place him at or near the scene at the time of WM’s death. So he either lied in his statement or his phone has wings. Bullet...

2 days away from the WM trial. Awaiting the creation of a specific WM forum. Administrators??

Admittedly all circumstantial. MS was at the house evening of July 3. The text from DM after picking up LB: “Don’t be out front” so MS was likely in on the plan. The absence of texts between DM and MS for 4 hrs while murder allegedly took place. Truth is no one is certain MS participated. It...

Given that DM sent MS that infamous text 'I just rolled my first spliff' on July 4 morning, one might conclude that DM rolled her up in the tarp himself. It does sound like MS participated in the killing though.

And the parallel question - if DM loses his inheritance, who gets WM's money? Certainly not MB (she has no entitlement that I could imagine). Other relatives of WM? Did WM have a will? Justice would dictate that the money goes to DM's victims but then it isn't his money anymore...

One gets the sense that MS's body language (sense of dread - staring into the abyss) indicated that he sorta knew what was coming and will be kicking himself for eternity for bad decisions made. DM (angry, defiant, delusional) is behaving like this is some big surprise. Seriously out of touch...

DM is infamous far more than he is famous. The CBC is not running one hour specials on him because of his piloting exploits. He would not even have a Google bio were it not for the murders. It is an insult to all aircraft pilots to categorize him as such. Which makes me think that DM paid Google...

ABro, you’re one of the heros in this story both through your questioning of LE and chronicalling of the sordid and convoluted details. Carbone, by choosing to obfuscate at the press conference, is decidedly no hero. More like the fall guy. Still waiting for TPS to come clean, apologize and...
